The keeper had been linked with a move to the Premier League club, whose long term number one keeper Chris Kirkland was taken to hospital last night with concussion in the draw at Bolton.
However, City boss Aidy Boothroyd has denied any contact being made and interest now goes to Saturday's match to see if the Republic Of Ireland keeper, who is out on contract at CCFC at midnight on June 30th, plays or is kept out of the side so that City could command a greater fee for an un-cuptied player.
